결함 증상 & 문제 해결

Common alarms of damaged encoders (Sigma7 drive):

A.10 Encoder communication error

A.11 Encoder phase error

A.32 Position deviation excessive

Troubleshooting Checklist:

Check if encoder fixing screws and shaft coupling (between motor shaft and encoder core) are loose
Inspect encoder connector pins for oxidation or pin retraction
Impacts, water ingress and oil contamination can easily shatter the code disc; only full encoder assembly replacement is viable
교체 후: Perform home position return after servo power-up. Incremental encoders lose position when power off.

유지 & 교체시 주의사항

Never strike the code disc during encoder disassembly; glass code discs are fragile
Alignment marks must be matched properly. Misalignment directly triggers A.11 alarm and motor jitter
Distinguish UTTSH (증분) / UTTAH (순수한). Wrong model installation results in malfunction
For second-hand units, test A/B phase waveforms and Z-phase zero point, confirm no cracks on code disc

대사 & Spare Part Information

Original spare part: UTTSH-B24RH

Absolute version with identical appearance: UTTAH-B24RH (cannot directly replace UTTSH. Drive parameters need to switch to absolute mode, and the motor internal battery circuit differs)

Yaskawa Sigma7 (SGD7S/SGD7A) Parameter Setting Checklist after UTTSH-B24RH (24-bit Incremental Encoder) 대사

적용 모터: SGM7G / SGM7A; 인코더: UTTSH-B24RH【24-bit Serial Incremental Encoder】

전제조건: Encoder mechanical alignment marks matched, fixing screws tightened, connector intact. Not UTTAH absolute encoder

Pre-operation (Before Power-on)

전원 끄기, confirm encoder alignment marks aligned, no stress or collision on code disc
Verify motor model matches the drive; motor nameplate code type F (24-bit incremental)
Connect PC with SigmaWin+, back up all original parameters first (필수적인)
Power on the drive and clear existing alarms
Core Encoder Type Parameters

매개변수 번호.	설명	Setting Value (UTTSH-B24RH Incremental)	비고
Pn002	Encoder Type Selection	Pn002 = □□□0	0=Incremental encoder; 1=Single-turn absolute; 2=Multi-turn absolute
Pn002	Encoder Type Selection	Pn002 = □□□0	⚠️ If previous encoder was UTTAH absolute, this must be set to 0, otherwise A.040 parameter abnormality occurs
Pn080	Motor Phase Sequence Selection	Keep original motor factory value, do not modify arbitrarily	Pn080 generally unchanged when replacing encoder; only check/tune phase sequence if A.11 phase alarm appears

UTTSH-B24RH is a 24-bit serial incremental encoder. The drive automatically recognizes 24-bit resolution upon power-up. No manual pulse count entry required, different from old external A/B encoders.

Alarm Clear & Reboot Procedure
Alarm reset: Fn002 (Alarm Reset)
After modifying Pn002, fully power down the drive, wait 5 minutes then power on again for parameters to take effect
After power-up, read [Motor Information] via SigmaWin+, confirm recognized as: 24bit Incremental Encoder

Recognition failure: A.10 encoder communication error, inspect connector, power supply and encoder body

III. 집 & Operation Related Parameters (Key for Incremental Encoder)

UTTSH incremental encoder loses home position on power loss, home return required every power-up

매개변수 번호.	이름	비고
Pn200	Home Return Mode	Keep original setting from host controller; incremental mode cannot select “read absolute position directly after power on”
Pn50A / Pn50B	Input Terminal Definition	Retain backed-up original values, generally no modification
Pn100~Pn104	Gain Parameters	Load unchanged after encoder replacement, reuse old gain first. Re-run inertia identification if motor vibrates

Trial Run Verification Steps (Item-by-item Check)
JOG operation (SigmaWin+ Fn003)

정상: Motor rotates smoothly without jitter, no A.10/A.11

Abnormal A.11: Encoder alignment offset, power off and re-align marks

Monitor values: Un000 (Actual Speed), Un001 (Motor Position). Position value increases/decreases normally without jumping during rotation
Execute home return once, confirm Z-phase home mark captured correctly
Load trial operation, no A.32 excessive position deviation alarm
Fn Function Code Operation List

Fn Code	기능	응용 시나리오
Fn002	Alarm Reset	Clear A10/A11 and other alarms
Fn003	JOG Operation	Low-speed test run after installation to inspect motor and encoder
Fn004	Parameter Save	Save parameters to drive flash memory after modification
Fn010	Inertia Identification	Re-auto-tune gain when motor vibrates (선택 과목)

일반적인 함정 & Reminders
❌ Do NOT set Pn002 to 1/2: If original motor used UTTAH absolute encoder and replaced with UTTSH incremental, failure to change Pn002 directly triggers A.040 잘못
❌ No need to set electronic gear numerator/denominator for 24-bit serial incremental encoder to match encoder pulses; drive auto-detects code disc resolution. Electronic gear only relates to mechanical reduction ratio and host pulse unit
A.11 phase error: 90% caused by misaligned encoder marks, not parameter issue. Prioritize mechanical reinstallation instead of modifying Pn080 blindly
No need to run absolute encoder zero reset (Fn013) after encoder replacement. Fn013 is invalid for UTTSH incremental encoder

Critical Replacement & 선택 참고 사항
Same prefix with suffix RH / RK / FL are not universal: Different flange, connector and mounting hole layout. Cannot install even with identical resolution
UTTSH ≠ UTTAH: Similar external appearance, different hardware and drive parameters. Wrong assembly triggers A.040 / A.10 alarms
Sigma7 24-bit serial encoders do not require manual electronic gear setup for encoder pulse matching, drive auto-recognition applies. Same rule for old Sigma5 17bit. Only old standalone A/B encoders need manual configuration
SGM7D/SGM7E direct drive motors use dedicated built-in encoders, rarely sold separately in spare parts market
Obsolete Legacy Models (Sigma-II, Sigma-III, SGMAH/SGMPH)
